If anything what Apple really needs to do is find either a new material or a new manufacturing process that allows for more expansion of the key and mechanism under heat stress without sticking. This doesn't fix the particulate issue, which ultimate triggers the problem, but it does allow for a lot more particulate to accumulate before the problem renders the keyboard unusable.

    It's a corp machine, and we're the IT department, and my boss has already said that if it happens for a third time, he's going to tell our rep to swap it out for an 18 SKU with the butterfly v3. My understanding is that the best they can upgrade you to is if you're on the v1 keyboard is the v2, as the battery shaping on the v3 bottom case doesn't align with the 2017 logic board, so they can't actually upgrade you to the keyboard with the rubber crumb condom.

      Oh interesting. I did not know that. I'll probably stick with the V1 then.
